Summary

This document addresses work instructions on how to add benefit time from the employee’s schedule.  Please note, this feature generally is used with the TMS leave management module.

  2. Find the day on the calendar of the request and click the ‘+’ (Figure 2).

  3. From the menu, select Add Work Schedule (Figure 3).

  4. On the Add Schedule dialogue box, change the Type of Schedule to Absence Planned; select the appropriate Benefit and set the number of Hours the employee will use.  Click OK(Figure 4).

  5. The scheduled absence will now be displayed on both the schedule calendar and the employee’s timecard (Figure 5).

Deleting a Scheduled Absence

  1. To delete the scheduled absence, click on the entry (Figure 6).

  2. Check Remove this Schedule and click OK. The absence has been removed from the calendar and timecard (Figure 7).
